YES! That would create even more immersion into an already compelling piece of art/literature! Swish, you are on the money with this recommendation!

I CONCUR!

Love your art style. Do you have a gallery somewhere? Deviantart or something?

Default Part 2 of How to play a dwarf rogue on p99 blue server A tribute to EBK BLUUHD

Hello Fellow Dwarvish Rogues,

This is now Part 2 of How to play a dwarf rogue on p99 blue server A tribute to EBK BLUUHD. Thank you for listening.

You are now in Rivervale. Do not let the hobbits beguile you. Underneath their good beer and fun, they are the slaves of Democracy (more on this later). As a Dwarf Rogue you are violently opposed to Democracy. Indeed, you are opposed to any Law that bars you from the acquisition of Rare and Powerful Artifacts. As a Dwarf Rogue you know that the only true Law of Nature is The Willingness to Kill. And this also means to “kill it” in the metaphorical sense. Some times as a Dwarf Rogue you will not be murdering your opponents but you will still be “killing it” in the way that Michael Jackson “killed it.” Do not give this concept further thought. Total self control over the flow of your thoughts and feelings is an essential aspect of the Fully Realized Dwarf Rogue.

You have three functions as a Dwarf Rogue. 1. Killing 2. Stealing 3. Barrel Rolling over dangerous pits and traps. They are always to be thought of and you should never stop thinking of them. Specifically, you must hold them in your mind in that order. Killing, Stealing, and Barrel Rolling are how you will make your way to Infamy and Fortune.

It is time to Train the art of killing.

To Kill, one must look into his own heart and see blackness. In order to do this, you must accept your own Death as an immediate reality. Stand before your opponent and square your feet. For now, you needn’t practice the Art of Ambush. Visualize the goblin cutting your throat with a rusty knife. Imagine being beaten senseless in sight of the Misty Thicket wall, rising from unconsciousness and a pool of purple blood only to be pummeled apart from your accursed life. Only then can you know the enveloping blackness. In this you will find Freedom.

As a Dwarf Rogue, your spirit is a pit of greed. Prepare yourself before you gaze into the soul of your Dwarf Rogue.

It has not been long since her death. Hurmegardt the beauteous! How she begged the Gods for her life. Before you now, the goblin pleads. "DONT GROK ME DONT GROK ME" it shrieks endlessly.

She cried under the rocks. Your fingers scraped the stones. You flung away boulders and they thumped in the dark, THUMP, THUNK, THOOM, as she pleaded with Brell. Find a stone. Stove in the goblin's skull.

Do not shy away from this spite. It is your fuel. It is your devotion. Gaze inside. When your eyes turn black, strike down your enemy.

Wearing nothing and wielding your tarnished weapon, you must fight your opponents until you reach level 7.

During this time, befriend as many halflings as you can. Though they are worms of Mayor Gubbin, they will prove valuable to you later. As they grow, some hobbits gain the ability to teleport Dwarf Rogues across vast distances in the toss of a coin. Become particularly well acquainted with the Rogues, Warriors, and Clerics. As you train your Blacksmithing, each of these hobbits will net you approximately 50pp when you sell them a set of banded. Furthermore, a Dwarf Rogue is in need of allies to perform at his optimal levels. Therefore, you must at all times be a Charming personality. It is easy to be liked among hobbitfolk if you feed them ethanol and pipe weed.

At level 7, you have now accomplished two very important things. These things are, in respective order:
1. Hitting Level 7
2. Engineering social structure to support your ascension as a Dwarf Rogue

In this time, you have developed a clumsy sense in combat. Most people would make the mistake of continuing to grind camps somewhere. That is why I am writing this guide. To correct this egregious error.

Codex 1: A Dwarf Rogue shall always advance his person through means of subterfuge and theft when able. It is much easier to steal an item someone is hiding than it is to murder them and hide the body.

It is time to stop fighting. Go to the Halfling Mafia and learn how to Pick Pocket. This skill is your bread and butter. It will now pave your road with platinum and experience.

Buy twenty Muffins and twenty Brandy. You are leaving Rivervale at the crack of dawn to travel through Kithicor Forest. Take this time to drink Brandy. It is also possible to fool many hobbits into giving you free weapons and platinum. While you wait for dawn, you have 2 priorities: 1. Drink Brandy 2. Demand Tribute to the Liberator's League of Kaladim. Tell anyone who will listen that you are the exiled son of a lost Lord. Give them Brandy. Soon, they will line your pockets with generous elvish gifts.

At dawn, depart Rivervale suddenly.

Very good. Many parts are written quite well and truly depict thought and feeling through the prose. Not sure if that makes sense, but I enjoy this writing style.
